Firestone Firehawk Indy 500
#21
Those who purchased the firestones, was there a rebate available? I'm debating buying a set this month to take advantage of a $60 rebate. If they typically run rebates I may wait.

I bought mine about 2 months ago and did not get the rebate. From what I can tell they run a rebate once a year.
#23
There was no rebate available when I bought mine.

Just did a track day on these tires, the original forecast had rain in the morning but it ended up only being a light mist which made th track damp. Did 6 twenty minute sessions and the tires held up great, they don't have the ultimate grip of the 200tw EHP tires but I never felt they were not capable. For me they were approximately 2s a lap slower than my regular track tire (Dunlop Direzza Z2 Starspec) on a short track that is very brake/tire intensive.

I've been putting off getting new tires as I want to run AP2 dimensions on my AP1, but may take the plunge on these by the weekend before the rebate is up. $400 installed isn't bad at all. I'll post impressions if I end up purchasing
